RE: [Xen-users] Compiling VMWare server against xen dom0 enabledkernel
I''m running xen 3.0 testing (downloaded yesterday) and VMware Server
1.0.1 and it does not work for me. VMware Server compiles and loads fine but
while starting up a VMware VM I get the below error.

Subject: Re: [Xen-users] Compiling VMWare server against xen dom0 enabledkernel
Hi!
Few weeks ago, I asked the same. Only one person posted a positive reply.
Since then I tried to install vmware-server on domU and dom0, but I failed.
Vmware kernel modules compile succesfully on dom0, but loading vmmon.ko failes
due to a slight difference in kernel versions (I don''t know why that
happens since it''s the kernel source for the dom0 kernel).
I''ll try few times more and will report if I succeed.
Best regards,
David

Hi all,
I need to deploy several virtual machines (windows and RHEL) on my
laptop to do some demostrations to our customers. At this moment, my
laptop is a RHEL 4 ES U1 with xen enabled kernel 3.0.2 downloaded from
xensource.com (rpm packages) on a Pentium M 2GHz. My idea is to install
VMWare Server on this laptop on dom0 (not on any virtual machine) using
xen kernel sources from rpm packages. is this possible???
Many thanks

[Xen-users] RE: Compiling VMWare server against xen dom0 enabledkernel
VMware will not work under a Xen kernel. VMware makes too many assumptions (as it has to) about the kernel environment. The only way it will ever work is if VMware decides to support running under Xen and rearchitects appropriately. At the same time, binary kernel modules are evil and should be avoided anyway.
